Is it possible for a girl from China marry a Saudi?

sims, first of all its good to know that the relationship between both of you is strong, to answer your question frankly, you both can marry, but consider a few questions yourself.

1. Can you handle the culture difference (its huge)
2. If the Saudi is Muslim, which i think he is you can marry him only if you ARE muslim too, if you people plan to marry here in KSA. Can you convert your Religion? Can you wholeheartedly accept Islam. In islam its the Intention that matters not the worldy objectives. You have to sincerely convert to Islam otherwise it may be void.
3. According to Saudi laws, you have to rely on your husband for majority of tasks and in case any thing comes to court the justice will heavily weigh in favour of the Saudi.

There are many other things that look minor in the beginning but may pose big problems if provoked.There are many articles on the internet regarding what foreign wives of Saudis have gone thru, do a little research, you will get a indept idea what to expect. Anyway i hope you a good future, think deeply/ ask for advice, but in the end do what your heart says.

Forgive me friends if there may be anything i said is incorrect.

Please note that Jewish and Christian females DO NOT need to conbert to Islam to marry a Muslim man as per the Shariah Law.

However, you have to be prerpared to learn and accepot the ways, culture, lifestyle and manners of the Arabs if yoy intend marrying one and opting to live in Saudi Arabia. You have toi study, discuss, and understand tghis aspect very well before yopu make up your mind. One cannbot simply live on love and fresh air, remember...!

thank you for the above response!

I do want to know more about the Saudi cultures.
I read blogs of foreigners living in Saudi, some is very horrible and some are very happy. I've also been watching youtube on life of Saudi Women.

However, I am a foreigner that haven't been to Saudi before, what I read and watch is the only information I can know about Saudi. However, blogs maybe too personal experience or maybe exaggerated for some of the stories, and watching youtube I'm afraid the translations are wrong! Also, the videos I've watch is from a viewpoint of a native Saudi Woman, which maybe different from what a foreigner see.

So I do hope anybody reading this post can give me more information on Saudi cultures and laws, so that I can try to analysis whether this marriage is worth it.

Thank you!

Why not until you are very honest about it? If you really love Saudi guy i don't think u need to worry about culture and his religion.Moreover when you are married to a muslim man you wil get to know true image of muslims.Please don;t judge muslim and saudi by the propaganda of media and people with bad notions.Go on and enjoy your life.

Immu,

true but sometimes people 'revert back' to their culture once home and again under the influence of their families.

My point is, this man she knew and loved in Australia may be a very different guy in his homeland.  Something to consider.

Sims, read the thread in this forum where we have already discussed this topic with an American girl.

Best wishes.

Immu: although both of us love each other, but marriage is not solely about 2 person, but is 2 families, so I hope I do not take a wrong step and upset both of our families, therefore I put up this post and want to listen more, but thank you for your support:)

Alliecat: I've read the American girl's story, that's why I am posting this post, as America is different from China, actually to be exact, I am from HK, is a place with "East-meet-West" culture due to our historical background, so I think this is another special case, and my bf is from Riyadh, so will it be more difficult for us to get married?

The way I see it, you're not a special case--it's a foreigner marrying a Saudi, plain and simple.  Any foreigner is going to have more or less the same difficulties married to a national, living in KSA and being part of an extended family.
